    December 2008, Beverley Hicks, medical communications unlimited


    "Thanks for organising the last two MedCommsNetworking meetings, CME in London and Procurement in Oxford, both of which were well worth attending for the content of the presentations as well as the chance to talk to colleagues we may not usually get the chance to meet."

    December 2008, Anton Abrahams, Solaris Health


    "Thank you for organising the procurement meeting. It was a very good choice of topic. Really interesting to hear that other agencies were experiencing the same thing. I thought the meeting was very relevant for me and Richard Woodford was a particularly good speaker and choice for the evening. He was very engaging and was very clear with the messages he wanted to highlight. I will certainly look out for future meetings like this."

    November 2008, Shirley Ann Parker, Succinct Healthcare Communications and Consultancy


    "Thank you for arranging a great meeting on the topic of Procurement. It was invaluable to hear insights from a Procurement Manager on where the industry is now and where it's heading in the future. I appreciated the rapid availability of relevant materials on your website so that I could share information with my colleagues at Facilitate."

    November 2008, Ann Dieckmann, Facilitate


    "I thought it was a very interesting meeting on Wednesday, and a PR coup for procurement! What was said was very interesting, enlightening and made a lot of sense. I only hope that Richard can bring the "quality procurement process" to the Pharma sector."

    August 2008, Rachel Davies, Fishawack Communications


    “Just to say that I thought Thursday evening in Oxford was great: a lovely venue (worth travelling a long way for) and really good food and drink – and plenty of it. Met some interesting people too. Many thanks.”

    July 2008, Julie Bowdler, Independent

    July 2008, David Bennett, Oxford Pharmagenesis


    “This is just a quick note to thank you for arranging last night's networking event in Oxford.

    “The recent publication strategy seminar provided a fantastic overview and update of the area, by two great speakers, for free! I gained many useful insights on current hot topics such as the impact of trial registries, the FDA amendment act, the development of open-access journal publishing and more! An unmissable event for publication planners!!”

    June 2008, Jane Grills, Independent


    “Just to say I really found the Publications Planning event earlier this month very information and extremely useful.

    June 2008, Corinne Swainger, MEDIQUILL


    “These MedComms Networking events are great to update knowledge in fast-moving areas of communication and to network.”

    June 2008, Melanie Martin, Medical Writing Ltd


    “I wanted to let you know that the job ads are proving very fruitful at the moment, especially for senior-level positions. I have received some excellent candidates for some quite difficult roles, and most importantly the candidates themselves seem very interested in the positions. If some of them end successfully I’ll probably owe you a drink or two!”

    June 2008, Matthew McGinley, Nonstop Pharma Recruitment


    “The MedComms Networking events are really well worth attending, a great combination of education and opportunities to meet old friends and new people involved in this sphere of work.

    June 2008, Judith Grice, PharmaCodes Medical Communications


    “MedComms Networking provides an important forum for the UK-based medical communications, medical publishing and medical education sectors to come together to share knowledge and build contacts. We have found MedComms Networking to be an important channel to reaching new contacts in these sectors”

    June 2008, Leighton Chipperfield, Publisher, Elsevier


    “NetworkPharma's MedComms Networking events are topical, stimulating and fun, and the more new faces they attract, the more interesting they get.”

    June 2008, Sarah Redston, Health Press


    “MedComms Networking is an effective initiative that fills a huge void in this industry. It stimulates new connections and relationships, provides opportunities to learn from specialists and draws together a resource of essential, up-to-date, industry knowledge and information.

    Every company, employee and self-employed professional will find a way to benefit themselves, their business or their clients by getting involved.”
